Now's the time to dine at one of NYC's best food trucks!

Before your new favorite mobile eatery wins a Vendy and gains infamous block-long lines, check out some of the rookies, old favorites and dessert nominees for the 11th Annual Vendy Awards, the Oscars of the food truck world.

The 2015 Vendy Awards will take place on Governors Island on September 12th, with tickets for the all-you-can-eat affair now on sale starting at $100.

Deciding who wins the coveted Vendy titles will be a panel of six esteemed judges including FoodbabyNY (and his dad), F Seetoh (a Singaporean street food expert consulting on Bourdain Market) and Marco Carrión, commissioner of New York City's Community Affairs Unit.
